BRASELTON, Ga. (April 15, 2004) - David Brabham, Peter Kox and Scott
Maxwell, three drivers with winning records in the American Le Mans Series,
have been named to drive for the new Lamborghini factory-affiliated Krohn-
Barbour Racing team that will debut in the next round of the ALMS at Mid-
Ohio Sports Car Course in late June.

The three join previously-announced driver and team co-owner Tracy
Krohn as pilots of the two Lamborghini Murcielago R-GTs that Krohn-Barbour
Racing will field in all eight remaining rounds of the 2004 season for the
ALMS. The cars will compete in the GTS class.

"We're extremely pleased to be campaigning this lineup of exceptional
drivers, who will each contribute to bringing out the full potential of the
Lamborghini Murcielago R-GTs," said team co-owner Dick Barbour. "Each
driver brings experience of driving in relevant areas and taking podium
finishes. Each shares the philosophy of Krohn-Barbour Racing: we're not
here to make up thee numbers and we go racing to win championships."

Brabham and Kox will co-drive the #5 Krohn-Barbour Racing entry while
Maxwell will team with Krohn in the team's #6 entry.

Brabham, from Australia, has competed in all but three of the 48
races held since the formation of the ALMS in 1999 and is second on the all-
time career starts list. He has 10 wins, seven of them overall race
victories while driving for the former Panoz factory team, and three GTS
class wins earned last year with the Prodrive Ferrari team.

"I'm obviously looking forward to the challenge," said Brabham. "It's
a new team, and a car that's new to the series. With my experience driving
the Ferrari last year, and driving the Saleen at Sebring, I'm looking
forward to seeing how the Lamborghini goes. I know Peter and Scott very
well and am happy to be driving with them, and with Tracy it's potentially
a very good package.

"With a new car and a new team, you can't expect too much too soon,"
he said. "At first, we want to get good finishes and good data on the car
so we can work to keep improving."

Kox, from The Netherlands, was part of the GTS class-winning team in
the 2003 running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the Prodrive Ferrari squad.
He teamed with Tomas Enge and Prodrive to score one GTS win in each of the
past two ALMS seasons, including a victory in the Petit Le Mans at Road
Atlanta in 2003. Kox also has experience in Lamborghini racers, having
driven a Diablo GTR for Reiter Engineering in the 2001 FIA GT Championship,
and he has participated in Reiter's testing and development of the new
Murcielago along with Audi Sport.

Maxwell, from Toronto, is a longtime veteran of sports car racing and
also a former class winner in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. He drove cars
fielded by Dick Barbour in the ALMS in 2001, winning the LMP 675 class that
year in the Petit Le Mans. He spent the 2003 ALMS season driving Prototypes
for JML Team Panoz.

Krohn is President and CEO of W&T Offshore, Inc., an oil and gas
exploration and production company with activities primarily in the Gulf of
Mexico. He began his racing career three years ago at the Panoz Racing
School and progressed through the Panoz GT Pro Series, where he finished
second overall in 2003. He lives in Houston.

Barbour will be trying to become the first team owner in ALMS history
to win team titles in three different classes, having won the GT class
championship in 2000 and the LMP 675 title in 2001. His team also won the
LMP 675 title in the European Le Mans Series in 2001. He scored three
straight wins in the Sebring 12 Hours, one as a driver and three as an
owner, beginning in 1978, and the native Californian also took three
consecutive class wins in the 24 Hours of Le Mans as a driver starting in
1978. His team enjoyed a 14-win season in 1980 that was capped off with an
IMSA championship.

Krohn-Barbour Racing will run the Lamborghini Murcielago R-GTs from
Barbour's shop located at Road Atlanta in Braselton, Ga., with factory
support from Automobili Lamborghini. A team of Krohn-Barbour technicians
will spend time at Reiter Engineering in Germany prior to the shipment of
the cars to North America.

American Le Mans at Mid-Ohio will be Round Two of the 2004 season for the
ALMS and will include a two-hour, 45-minute timed event on Sunday, June 27.
The race will be televised live by CBS Sports in North America and MotorsTV
